Up Up & Away In My Beautiful Balloon

Photo:Reuters


Naughty Falcon blurts the truth

Press forgiven for his youth

Vomiting on live TV

Guilty one for all to see

 

Sheriff’s tweaked at dear old dad

Because they know just who was bad

Desperation thoughts prevailed

His reality show will be filmed from jail

 

Fake emergencies have a price

Soon we’ll see his butt on ice

Sorry little Falcon Heene

That your dad was such a weenie

 

Once again the media hacks

Broke a story with no facts

Run for cover, hide away

That asteroid might hit today

Pretty sad when a dad uses his little son for a pawn, just to get attention! Now that's sick! (The dad, not the poem; the poem was very good!)

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(
